%N Number of reduced words of length n in Coxeter group on 25 generators S_i with relations (S_i)^2 = (S_i S_j)^16 = I.
%C The initial terms coincide with those of A170744, although the two sequences are eventually different.
%C Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
